Mel Gibson

    • Years ago, when The Passion of the Christ was released (2004), there was a lot of talk about Mel Gibson, how he might have been atoning for his previous Hollywood films, how good or bad the movie was, Mel's love/hate relationship with Hollywood, etc.

    And mostly, (at least as far as I recall) people brought up his early and most problematic works, like the Lethal Weapon series.

    Maybe it's just been a long time, or maybe I didn't follow those discussions closely enough, but did anyone bring up the movie Braveheart in these discussions?

    Because
    A) Gibson was a more influential actor by then, and played a larger part in the production of these later film(s). Braveheart for example was "directed and co-produced" by Gibson. He wasn't just an actor, like in the Lethal Weapon series.

    B) Braveheart had some very problematic content, from a Catholic morality perspective.
    1. There was no need to show the wedding night on screen.
    2. William Wallace was not married to the Princess -- though her marriage to the sodomite prince was never consummated. So their little one-night romp was fornication, if not adultery. THIS FLING WITH THE PRINCESS WAS NOT HISTORICALLY PART OF WILLIAM WALLACE'S LIFE EITHER. Gibson put this crap in there.

    C) Braveheart was released in 1995, just 9 years before "The Passion of the Christ" was released (2004). So it wasn't exactly ancient history at the time.

    • Mel is a sinner like the rest of us and needs to convert back to Catholicism. That's my opinion of the disparity between Braveheart and the Passion.

    • As you probably recall, I have a problem with Gibson's Agony in the Garden scene from the Passion of Christ movie.

    This scene, showing Our Lord stomping on the serpent's head symbolically undercuts Our Lady's exclusive Divine license to do so.
    It is also a reinforcement of the Protestant rewrite of the Book of Genesis.

    One other point on the Passion, was Gibson's depiction of Roman soldiers scourging Our Lord.  The Catholic mystics, especially Anne Catherine Emmerich, who Gibson claims to have read, point out that Roman soldiers did not physically do the act of scourging.  It was the Jєω's slave class ruffians who injured Our Lord.

    This is important because Gibson's depiction aids the Jєωιѕн age-old lie that it was the Romans who crucified Our Lord.

    I once read an editorial note on a now defunct website known as "judicialinc" which displayed a unique understanding of the judaic criminal mindset.
    They claimed that there was no way possible for Gibson to have maintained a prolific career in Hollywood unless he was covertly playing ball with the Jєωs.

    Last comment on Gibson's lack of Catholic reference, was his 2016 movie, Hacksaw Ridge.

    This movie fully endorsed ecuмenism by focusing on the 7th Day Adventist religion of a war hero Desmond Doss and by excluding any reference to the Christianity of American fighting forces.

    Doss is a conscientious objector who is a military medic in the Pacific Island battles of WWII.



    Gibson develops the characters of the battle group who are assaulting Japanese entrenchments.

    While the whole movie was devoid of any mention of the other soldiers' Christianity, there was one particular scene that I found up-settting.

    Gibson included a 7th Day Adventist prayer scene, where only Doss was praying, while the whole battle group waited for him.



    These men were going into full flung battle and in reality, we know there were multiple Rosary beads
    being exercised in that group.

    Well Gibson showed none of that, but the focus was on depicting the grace coming from only the prayers of a 7th Day heretic.

    This was total Hollywood-Jєω heretical propaganda and Gibson, the "trad-man" was fully for it.

    It only reinforced my impression that Gibson is a freemason who is under the beck & call of the Jєωs.

    He has the "Catholic" cover to make movies Jєω producers cannot credibly make.

    That's interesting in that SeanJohnson cited a passage from Dom Gueranger that we don't genuflect for the Jєωs because they mocked Our Lord by genuflecting to Him after the crown of thorns, and felt that was in error.  I defended Gueranger saying that there may be more of a tradition around what happened and the Jєωs' involvement in it.

    • For whatever reason, Mel Gibson also decided to star in the 2022 movie Father Stu. I wouldn't recommend watching it. Just look (or don't) at some of the movies Jim Caviezel starred in since Passion of the Christ, such as Outlander (2008). Actors may need to work for a living too, but there have been plenty that are more choosy in what parts they will play.

    • Gibson just lives a double life.  Somehow he's managed to stay convicted of his Traditional Catholic principles, but he's completely immersed in Jєωlywood and the world in general.

    That's where I believe that the strange buggy and darting eyes come from.  Inside, he's tortured by his conscience.  I've seen a similar look and experssions on the faces of others who also were troubled by their consciences.  Good sign is that he still has one left in there somewhere.

    We should pray for Mel.  I'd love to have an hour to talk to him.  "Mel, all this money and fame (you've got enough already) isn't worth losing your soul over."

    • Gibson did a good job at portraying the true nature of fαɢɢօts. They are scheming, slithery, selfish, narcissistic perverts. One of the best scenes is when the king threw that one fαɢɢօt out of the window to fall to his ugly death. Fag Hollywood resented Gibson for it.

    Another (((disappearing act))) that I have noticed lately: Chabad's website has made certain pages (e.g., some of their Kabbala Online pages) unavailable to be archived by archive.org. archive.md is still able to archive the pages. I have also found that Chabad has made some of their web content inaccessible for copy and paste.

    Clearly they know that some goyim have been archiving their content and they want as much control as possible to disappear anything at any moment.

    Exclusive? Here is St. Paul writing to the church in Romans 16:
    "And the God of peace crush Satan under your feet speedily." Douay-Rheims

    "And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly" KJV

    The 'protestant rewrite' happens to be more consistent between Genesis and this passage here so it seems that the Douay-Rheims is the one that falls short.
